I have a set coming for my LS1 from Texas Speed and they are not cheap. I also got the stroker crank with them. Call them a call. Bear

I crewed for a GT1 SCCA team ran a solid roller motor with Carillo rods. They were great rods. I would assume the LS1 rods would be good too.

If you get a titanium set you are looking around 1500.00 but not to long ago someone posted a site that was selling NASCAR (I believe if was NASCAR) takeoffs, and the price was 500.00 a set. They would have to be machined for the LS1 offset (as alot of rods do) but that is nothing for a machine shop. I am suure you can get into a set for around 600.00 ready to go!
